Cookie Policy

Only essential technical cookies.

Last updated: May 18, 2026

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently and provide information to site owners.

2. Cookies We Use

By default the aeroftp.app website uses only strictly necessary technical cookies. With your consent, analytics cookies are also set (see section 4 for the full list):

Session Cookie

Name: PHPSESSID
Purpose: Maintains your session state (e.g., admin login)
Duration: Browser session (deleted when you close the browser)
Type: Strictly necessary

Theme Preference

Name: aero_theme
Purpose: Remembers your selected color theme (light, dark, tokyo, cyber)
Duration: 1 year
Type: Functional (localStorage)

3. What We Do NOT Use

  • No Facebook Pixel and no social media tracking
  • No advertising or marketing cookies
  • No cross-site tracking
  • No fingerprinting techniques
  • No intrusive consent walls: the site works fully whether you accept or decline analytics

4. Analytics

We use two analytics systems, loaded only after you accept the analytics category in the cookie banner: a self-hosted system (anonymous, aggregated page views; sets the site_analytics cookie, 1 year) and Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymization (sets the _ga and _ga_* cookies, 2 years). Until you give consent, none of these cookies are set, and you can review or change your choice at any time via the "Cookie Settings" link in the footer. See our Privacy Policy and Google's Privacy Policy for details.

5. Desktop Application

The AeroFTP desktop application does not use cookies, as it is a native application and not web-based.

6. Managing Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling the session cookie may affect the functionality of the admin panel. The theme preference is stored in localStorage and can be cleared through your browser's developer tools.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
